Bottle choice tests in rats are useful for the study of fat appetite. However, little is known about the feeding behavior of rats toward oxidized oil. In this study, 24-h two-bottle choice tests were performed in male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats for 5 days. When rats were given a choice between thermally oxidized oil and fresh oil, they ingested more fresh oil. A choice test between vapor-added fresh oil and fresh oil showed that rancid flavor is involved in the avoidance of oxidized oil. Results with deodorized oxidized oil indicated that a nonvolatile product also influenced choice. In conclusion, rats could distinguish oxidized oil from fresh oil and preferred fresh oil.
大鼠的奶瓶选择试验对于研究脂肪食欲很有用。然而,关于大鼠对氧化油的摄食行为知之甚少。在本研究中,对雄性斯普拉格-道利(SD)大鼠进行了为期5天的24小时双瓶选择试验。当给大鼠提供热氧化油和新鲜油的选择时,它们摄入了更多的新鲜油。在添加了气味的新鲜油和新鲜油之间的选择试验表明,酸败气味参与了对氧化油的回避。脱臭氧化油的试验结果表明,一种非挥发性产物也影响了选择。总之,大鼠能够区分氧化油和新鲜油,并且更喜欢新鲜油。
